How much tolerance is too much?
With the passage of Prop 8 in California, the advocates of gay “marriage” are set ablaze with anger. As I’m sure you have heard, at least three lawsuits have already been filed to repeal the measure. There have been numerous protests as well as threats against religious leaders. There are even cries to remove churches’ tax exempt status on the grounds that churches violated the separation of church and state by backing Prop 8. These tactics are not only childish, they are in very bad taste.
Most religious organizations are quite ambiguous on hot-button political issues because they are scared of losing their tax-exempt status. The threat to take away this privilege is a very dirty trick from opponents of the Church. Liberals have somehow managed to twist a clause in the Constitution that was designed to protect religion from government into something that protects government from religion. If you are truly living your faith then you vote by your faith. It is impossible to separate faith from daily life. But that is what we are expected to do by humanists. I refuse.
Another tactic that I find to be most distateful is to infer that we ”hate” those who don’t agree with us. Of course we don’t hate anyone, but we should not back down just because our opponents slander us and call us names. We have been on defense for so long that we have forgotten how to fight. I say no more. I will not back down. I will not give up the fight. I will not let you go to hell. I will not pass this fight on to my children. No, I don’t hate anyone, but I do hate bad behavior. I don’t respect twisted points of view, nor do I respect people who berate my religion and call me names.
Let me lay it out for all the people who are pro-gay “marriage”, pro-abortion, pro-euthanasia and pro-cloning. I love you, but I’m sick and tired of backing down from you. I won’t do it anymore. Your actions are disgusting and vile. There are many people who are trying to become holy and you are making a mockery of the struggle of mankind to become closer to God. If you are homosexual, I love you. There is nothing wrong with you and you shouldn’t feel marginalized. But I will not see you corrupt the institution of marriage under the banner of “equality”. The Church demands that you live a chaste life and this will give you more graces and strength than you ever thought possible. Come back home. If you are pro-abortion, how dare you seek to kill our children!!! What gives you the right to take another life? Repent and come back home. The same goes for you if you are pro-euthanasia. If you are pro-human cloning, stop playing God! God will show you how low you really are if you continue to do this. Repent and come back home.
I’m sorry if I sound mad, but I am. All of mankind should be united in an effort to grow closer to God, but we are so divided that we are on the verge of self-destruction. I will not let Truth be drowned out any longer.
God Bless.
